    EVGA 680i to 780i promotional upgrade, is it worth it?

    Thanks again for replying SirKronan! So, are you saying I should up the voltage to the ram's recommended 2.1V instead of just setting it to 2.0V like I did (originally, the mobo had set the ram to around 1.8V)?? I upped it to 2.0V instead of 2.1V because I was afraid of going too high --...

    EVGA 680i to 780i promotional upgrade, is it worth it?

    To dandapice & SirKronan: Thank you both SO MUCH for your replies!!! People like you are the reason I love HOCP!! Ok, so far, this is what I've done: 1.) I changed the voltage settings in my BIOS to better match my Dominator memory sticks (they were auto detected at around 1.8v, and I...

    EVGA 680i to 780i promotional upgrade, is it worth it?

    I currently only have one video card. I doubt I'll ever run dual video cards and, as such, it's even more unlikely that I'd ever run three! That being said, is it worth the upgrade simply for the new PCI Express 2.0 and 45nm CPU support? Also, is the 780i better than the 680i -- or vise...

    Do you think I should uninstall nTune? Is there a utility you recomend for OC'ing? Also, isn't nTune for more than just for overclocking? Isn't it aslo for bois updates other MB related stuff as well? Wow, is 2.1 safe then? Do I just need to avoid going over 2.1v? Also, as far as...

    Safe Corsair RAM for EVGA 680i

    Where do I check this setting? MB Bios? Software utility? Btw, I was expecting utilities for overclocking and whatnot to come with the motherboard. The cd that came with the board has "Motherboard Drviers," "Audio Drivers," and "NVIDIA nTune Software." The MB drivers would not work --...

    Safe Corsair RAM for EVGA 680i

    I have this motherboard (EVGA 122-CK-NF68-A1) and this ram (TWIN2X2048-8500C5D). The ram's specs state a 2.2 voltage. My motherboard, according to the "NVIDIA Monitor" utility, is currently running my ram at 1.8500 V. Also, it is the only hardware showing a little 'yellow' square next to it...

    New system build questions! -- Help please!

    Ok, I have been doing research off and on from about the time the core 2 duos came out until now in preparation for my new build which I've been planning for around this month or next. Currently, I already have my case ThermalTake VC3000BNS, PSU Corsair HX620W, and Ram Corsair Dominator 2GB...

    ATI Radeon HD 2900 XT @ [H]

    So, does this essentially mean that the 8800GTS/GTX has faster clock speeds "where it counts?" Is "separate clock domains" a better design, then? Does this design, and the higher speeds on the SP Clocks (for the vertex, pixel and geometry data) play a significat role in the 8800GTS/GTX...

    ATI Radeon HD 2900 XT @ [H]

    In looking at the picture below, the 2900 XT's Core Clock is listed as 743MHz, whereas the higher-performing 8800 GTS/GTX have lower Core Clocks at 500MHz/575MHz. Is it odd that the GPUs with the lower Core Clock speeds dominated so much; could this be potential evidence of possible driver...
